I just read an interesting interview RIM ran in the Small Business Editon of their newsletter this month. They interview Yahoo! EVP Marco Boerries about the Push 2–way sync now available for BlackBerry devices.

RIM has done a great job of breaking down the 2 way reconciliation features for BIS users in an easy to consume chart. The new 2 way reconciliation has made quite a few people happy but until now there was no distinctive list of the supported features on each type of hosted BIS email account [...]

I was reading an article on the New York Times website about this clever new service appropriately called Clever Commute. This email service is a peer to peer email mailing list where users with BlackBerry’s or other email enabled devices share commute advice with each other. The lists are highly moderated and specific to the [...]

BeamBerry is a free (for now) application that allows you to view certain attachments from your BlackBerry. The reason I am mentioning it is because they have just released Version 2.0 of BeamBerry that adds quite a few new features. I personally use BeamBerry as a backup for the native attachment viewing on my BlackBerry. [...]
